How about you guys?
Gman010, Welcome to the Forum
Knowing the exact number has never been important to me, so I do not count them.
No matter how many I ever own, there will always be others that I have seen that I would like to own . . . Not to mention those that I regret selling
Have you decided on what cartridge you want the revolver chambered for? Or what role you would like it to play? Target shooting, personal protection, home protection, hunting, plinking. That information will better help us make our favorites available to you
4" S&W 686. Thinking of going 6 shot over 7.

Do you think members of a gun forum will discourage you from buying another gun?
Do you live in a free state? Do you have the disposable income? Do you have more pressing financial needs? If you want it, you can afford it, and the price is right, that's all the justification you need.
I have a buddy who always complains about being broke at the end of each month, is chronically late on his rent, can't afford to put gas in his car, etc. Yet he is always buying ammo and shopping for guns & gun accessories. It's not my place to tell him how to spend his money, but IMHO, that's the kind of person who shouldn't be buying another gun.

You need one for IWB, like a P365. Then a compact, plus a full size range gun and full size HD gun. Those four plus another four just like them for back up. Then more HD guns for places to hide them, plus truck/trunk guns. So 10 would be the minimum, unless Democrats are in the White House.

FHHM213As long as my quantity is less than that owned in shoes & handbags by my wife, I’m good.
I suspect some of you fail that test!

This is what I need to hear.

Yep. Buy what you want. The idiots in charge of the government don’t want you to own anything that goes “bang.” That’s justification enough right there.

You can get that 50 AE, but it does not make a good carry piece.

You've come to the wrong place if you want someone to talk you OUT OF getting another gun. We're a bunch of enablers when it comes to that!
If you have the disposable $, go ahead and get another. After that, the questions are what fits your hand and what fits your wallet. Sigs, Glocks, Springfields, Smith & Wessons, Colts, Rugers, Walthers... and the rest.
If you're looking for a revolver, there's nothing wrong with a nice Smith & Wesson. Mod 66's and 19's are reliable as you can get without breaking the bank. Colt revolvers are great guns too, Pythons, THE OLDER ONES! The newer ones seem to have some problems, but the older ones fetch a pretty penny and are slowly turning into "Safe Queens" (guns you rarely, if ever, use). Ruger Revolvers are as solid as a tank and reliable as well.
The question was also asked- what do you plan to do with it? Target shooting? Self / home defense? Hunting?

You forgot pocket carry. Woods carry. Something sexy because I am wearing a tux carry. 1911 because America damnit! carry (also Beretta 92FS and SIG 320). 22 so you can teach the kids to shoot. And on and on and on...

kaschiOP: Only a total Dummkopf would answer that question on an open forum especially to someone with 15 posts. If you're trying to "justify" a fifth handgun, you must have tried to justify a second, third, fourth,.... Did anyone help you with those?

ersatzknarfAbsolutely you have come to the right place to find the sort of support and encouragement that one requires for the acquisition of more and more pistoles and other things that take cheddar..
Will leave these here, just in case:
